And another recipe that really shows the problem.
ingredients:
2 *sliders* endvalue set to 10 (no numberformat set), 1 field and 1 
button.

set the script of the button to:

on mouseUp
   put the thumbpos of sb 1 +  the thumbpos of sb 2 into fld 1
   put the thumbpos of sb 1  &&  the thumbpos of sb 2
end mouseUp

As you can see the values passed without setting the numberformat are 
different.
